Your Paleo New Year’s Resolution!   

Eat a high fat low carb diet-  

Paleo Jay’s Smoothie Cafe!

Higher Volume, Lower rep pushups

As you all know, the New Year is fast approaching... How can you ensure that it won’t be  the “unlucky” 2013 that the number implies?  By making it your goal to build your health in the coming year, rather than to just gradually let it slide further and further into the S.A.D.  Standard American Diet with all of the accompanying diseases and metabolic syndrome that we have come to associate with aging in the modern world...

Totally unnecessary!  Of course, aging is inevitable, but what we consider the inevitable SYMPTOMS of aging are by and large NOT predetermined!  

It’s mostly our... DIET!  Not our lack of exercise- although I am an avid exerciser, although only for brief and intense sessions, it is diet alone that can make or break us, health-wise.  Every piece of MODIFIED grain, in particular, that we put into our bodies, wreaks utter HAVOC within us- opening us up to autoimmune diseases of all types, wherein our OWN BODIES attack themselves, spiking our insulin and forcing our bodies to accumulate FAT cells and become more and more diabetic... vegetable or otherwise named industrial seed oils like canola (rape seed) oil, margarine (a horrible FAKE fat!), crisco and their ilk are akin to pouring hydrochloric acid into our intestines.  Is is really worth the insipid taste of breakfast cereal or pasta or a slice of bread, all of which really only taste good at all with LOTS of BUTTER slathered on, to slide into this pattern of sickness and ill health?  

NO!!

What can I do, Jay, what can I do?  

Well, you can saunter on down to Paleo Jay’s Smoothie Cafe and, for sheer inspiration, get yourself.... A PALEO JAY SMOOTHIE CAFE SMOOTHIE GLASS!  Pour your daily Paleo Smoothie into this puppy, and you can’t help but feel inspired!  Wear your Paleo Jay Smoothie Cafe t-shirt, and you’ll be DYING to do set after set of pushups! 

Already pining for the long, leisurely yet compelling round of golf coming your way this summer?  Paleo Jay’s Smoothie Cafe GOLF BALLS are ready to order!  And the list goes on and on: PJSC water bottles... Calendar... Baseball jersey.... YOGA MAT!!

All you could ever want, forever!  Just go to www.paleojay.com, and click on the Paleo Jay’s Smoothie Cafe icon to the right, and GO TO TOWN!  

The other thing you can do, after you have the aforementioned inspiration, is to CUT THOSE DAMAGING GRAINS from your diet!  Really, that is Job #1- don’t DO anything, just STOP eating that utter crap!  We all do it mainly from habit; from a lifetime of brainwashing about “healthy whole grains’ (grains, nutritionally, are almost vacant of nutrients compared to REAL, GOD -MADE foods like vegetables, fruits, nuts, and naturally raised, grass fed beef and wild seafood).  Eat pretty much ALL YOU WANT of these REAL foods- just avoid the processed, fake, MAN-MADE foods that will ROB you of your health and push you, inevitably, into completely avoidable disease, sickness, and “diabesity”.  Trust me, you will seem almost to have found the fountain of youth, if you cut the grains from your diet, and also...

EAT MORE GOOD FAT!  

Yup, contrary to everything you’ve heard since the cradle, GOOD FAT is the second most important thing to get more of.  if you’ve grown up in the US or other modern Western country in the past 50 years or so, you are grossly good fat deprived!  Your brain is made of fat, it is dependent on fat to properly operate, and your body is completely messed up when not given enough!  This lack of fat in the modern diet leads to depression, dry skin, constant hunger, and a constant nagging vitamin deficiency.  

Fat from grass fed beef, coconut oil, pastured butter and raw grass fed cream- these are just great for your health!  Pay no attention to those “many” men and women behind the curtain, speaking into a loudspeaker with the voice of doom in the persona of, for instance, “Dr. OZ, the Great and Powerful”!!  They are really a group of ignorant little people, hiding behind their Big Ag granted titles, spouting the nonsense they’ve been taught, for the purpose of selling...HARMFUL, GRAIN-BASED PRODUCTS, in the guise of healthy foods, and then selling in addition Big Pharma’s many DRUGS to treat the diseases they have caused!  

So, again, go to www.paleojay.com, click on the Tropical Traditions banner, and order some coconut oil!  Drink  it in your Paleo smoothie (at the Cafe), swish it in your mouth during your morning shower for dental health, dissolve it in your morning coffee for medium chain tryglicerides ,i.e. good fat!, and slather it on your skin for moisturizing and shaving!  IGNORE that man behind the curtain- eat real food and real fat!

One more thing- when you do pushups, or really any bodyweight exercise, try this:

If you can do, say, 30 pushups in a set to near failure... just do 15!  I like to do a set with wide grip (using the perfect pushup device, usually, with my legs elevated on a chair or couch), then medium, then narrow grip....  Just do the 15, another 15, and another 15...

Rest a bit, then repeat... over and over and over- for as long as you like!

You will find that you will be able to do a LOT of repetitions, with a minimum amount of strain, and a LARGE amount of gain using this method!  This really puts a lot of oxygenated blood into the muscles, and is a FANTASTIC workout!  It also leaves you feeling energized, rather than drained, as doing sets to near failure would.  One other thing- it leaves you with a glow of SUCCESS, since you easily make your set each time, and never have to STRAIN.  So, give it a try- I guarantee you will like it!

Paleo diet to lose fat!

The Paleo Diet has shown remarkable success in helping people to lose fat/weight, and achieve a much better "body composition".   The amazing thing is that it can bring these changes about without:

1. Hunger
2.  Long sessions of exercise
3.  Injury from those long, boring exercise sessions you thought were necessary


Really!  But how can this be?

It's really just simple, proven science!

Our bodies are not designed to eat grains, particularly wheat, which has become a mainstay of virtually every processed food in America.  Wheat is now completely genetically modified to the point where it has no similarity to the ancient wheat of the Bible, or even to the wheat from the 1960's!!
This is a huge point: if you wish to research the topic in depth, I refer you to the book Wheat Belly by William Davis-  Wheat Belly the blog

But, since all carbohydrates,  like wheat, corn, white potatoes, etc. turns to sugar in the body, that is more than enough reason alone to severely limit them in the diet.


The other thing to limit greatly in your diet is SUGAR.


When you eat sugar, or its twin- carbohydrates- your body responds to the rise in blood sugar, (which is actually an emergency situation for your body!), by producing massive quantities of insulin.  Insulin, which as we know is what Type 2 (self-induced) Diabetics lose the ability to produce, after many years of ingesting so much sugar/carbohydrates that their body has become overwhelmed by the bodily insult!  Don't let this happen to you- it is becoming EPIDEMIC in modern America, largely due to the fact that now- 90% of food sold in the USA is PROCESSED: (Comes in a bag, or a box, and is not real food anymore, but industrial food.


Industrial food is loaded with sugar/corn syrup/wheat/soy and the other thing you need to get rid of on the Paleo Diet- industrial seed (grain!) oils!
Corn, Soybean, Crisco- these are all rancid, harmful oils that are not really food.


The Food Industry uses all of this stuff, in processed and fast foods (another no-no!), because it is CHEAP!  That is the only reason- nutritional value is not even on their radar!

So, bottom line, what do you need to do to-

Regain your health and lose fat?

It's really rather simple, and if you think about it, you probably already intuitively know this stuff-

You've just been brainwashed into the "low fat, high carb Standard American Diet"

for your whole life!

So, here is what you get rid of:

1. Eliminate fast food
2. Eliminate bread, pasta, anything made with flour
3. Eliminate Industrial oils- margarine, soybean oil, corn oil, canola oil- any chemically processed oil
4. Eliminate Legumes- dried beans- irritate the gut lining, just as does wheat- this is a huge problem
5. Get long, painful, CARDIO/AEROBIC workouts out of your life (They lead to injury, burn very little in the way of fat/calories/, and do not build muscle, which is what you really want)
6. Stop Staying up late at night- (This interferes with your body in a minor way, stimulating the stress hormone "cortisol", which causes you to store fat, among other negatives).

 And here is what you replace the above with:

1. Whole eggs (free range is the best) 
2. Real, PASTURED butter (Kerrygold is the best)
3. All varieties of meat, and seafood  (Grass fed beef is best, but all of it is good- just be sure to include seafood, especially fatty fish like salmon and sardines)
4. Vegetables and fruits  (Berries are the best fruit!)  Don't go wild on fruit, but include it.  Eat LOTS of green vegetables.
5. Get on an intense, brief exercise program!  (Body weight exercise is best- pushups, pull-ups, sit-ups, brief sessions of sprinting and/or stationery bike "sprints" of 30 seconds or less, done for several "sets" lasting 20 minutes or less)
6. Get LOTS of sleep!  8 hours minimum (This is really crucial for health and fat loss- stress, like lack of sleep, causes your body to want to hang onto fat)

That's it!  Follow the above subtractions and additions in your life, and sooner than you think, you will look and feel better than you would believe!  This is a promise!!


I hear you asking:   "But how do I eat this way??

Simple:

1. Eggs and fruit for breakfast
2. Salad with meat or seafood for lunch
3. Grilled meat and vegetables for supper
4. Snacks- if you eat enough at meals, you probably won't get too hungry. But it you do:

Almonds,  dark chocolate, coffee with real whipped cream, macadamia nuts, olives, full fat cheeses, or again- meat, vegetables, sardines, etc. are all fair game


Or, you could make it easy, and make the Paleo Quick Start Smoothie!

It really makes the nutrition part almost effortless, and actually more "available" to your body, since it is all "broken down" and ready to assimilate, raw food enzymes and all!!

But anyway, there you go- try it for 3 weeks!  If you do, I guarantee you will not go back-
the benefits are that amazing!

I will leave you with this testimonial from an Australian farmer, who has transformed his own health, using the book by Nora Gedgaudus of Primal Body Primal Mind
